00:04there we need to treat that it's a fight against the fungus all right morning everyone today um
00:13we're going to be doing something slightly different to the usual we're going to be doing
00:17a little move around and we're going to be moving in thor's pride at six lions two males and four
00:23females and we are going to be treating charlie for some ringworm on his tail now these two lions at
00:33the sanctuary that have developed these lesions these little round spots on their tail it's it's
00:39charlie and and vietzi and why it's occurring is we've had as many of you will know tons and tons
00:47and tons of rain and many many overcast days so everything is wet and damp and perfect perfect
00:55conditions for a fungus to just um you know really take hold and um yeah so unfortunately
01:04we've noticed that just on two lions and we are trying to be proactive so that this doesn't spread
01:11everywhere in the sanctuary because these these funguses can really be terrifying if they if
01:18they take hold so yesterday i was at um dr caldwell he's mixed up a nice lotion and potion um
01:27and we've
01:27got to basically um endeavor to uh treat these these these fungal infections uh daily if not twice daily
01:40but uh yeah at least at least once a day i'm going to be away um in the coming weeks
01:47so
01:48what i'm trying to do is i'm trying to develop a protocol uh whereby george and or brenton can load
01:55the lion safely without me into the loading vehicle and then while one occupies the mouth end with food
02:04the other can work on the tail end and uh yeah so this uh this video today is going to
02:13have a twist in
02:14the tail pardon the pun um it's not your conventional move the lions around um but yeah um it should
02:22be
02:22interesting because i haven't done this before so there we go 27 years of working with the lions
02:28and uh this is something new so stick around and enjoy all right so before we can treat charlie we're
02:39going to move this whole group around we're going to move them to the camp next door to the walking
02:44camp they are the next group to go walking but uh we need to get thor and two girls out
02:49uh first and
02:51then we can treat old charlie uh hey my boy yeah yeah
03:20okay
03:20okay so the first the first one to load is always this girl jub jub
03:26um um and him sorry yeah sorry with this group with this group one has to
03:40keep one's wits about them because there's always a a little mouth well not such a little mouth a big
03:46mouth wanting to steal a titbit and sometimes they'll try and steal the entire bag yeah okay go go go
03:55go
03:56go go go whoop whoop okay yeah so i'm just going to lock him in ah move there neige
04:07pain it can be such a pain okay you guys yeah
04:15yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
04:33yeah
04:34and yeah yeah
04:39yeah
04:39yeah
04:40Yep.
04:43Yep.
04:53Yep.
04:54Come, Nish.
04:56Yep.
04:58Nish.
05:01Nish.
05:04Nish.
05:10Nish.
05:11Nish.
05:12Nish.
05:12Nish.
05:13That's my boy.
05:14Nish.
05:26Okay.
05:27Yeah.
05:28Yeah.
05:32Your bum getting too big for this cage.
05:35Okay.
05:37All right.
05:38Okay, done.
05:39Okay.
05:41Just these three.
05:41Yeah.
05:42Yeah.
05:42In here.
05:54Yeah.
05:55Charlie.
05:56Yeah.
05:58Go.
06:00Sure.
06:02Guys, it's next level hot today.
06:0635 degrees.
06:08And it is only 940 in the morning.
06:11With this humidity, it is killer.
06:15Obviously, the bigger the group, the harder it is.
06:18It's a little bit more complicated.
06:20It is why I'm moving this group to the bigger camp.
06:24With a bigger holding camp, it's going to be a lot easier to separate them so that they can isolate
06:30Charlie and just load Charlie.
06:33Otherwise, the girls just barge their way in.
06:37All good.
06:38All good so far.
06:39Offload Thor.
06:42Offload Thor, Nish, and Jabari.
06:44Head back.
06:46Get Indira, Lola, and Charlie.
06:49And then offload Lola, Indira.
06:52Keep Charlie in the back.
06:55Treat Charlie.
06:56Okay.
06:56That's the plan.
06:58At least.
07:23Good big guy.
07:30He always looks so cross, eh?
07:35Come.
07:43Here.
07:48Here.
07:49Here.
08:01Greta.
08:03Okay.
08:22So
08:26Charles
08:28I don't have
08:31This one is your tail. Give me your tail.
08:35We need to treat that.
08:40A little bit more
08:45Whoop!
09:07Yeah
09:09Yeah
09:09Yeah
09:12Yeah
09:12Yeah
09:15Okay
09:16Okay
09:18Yeah
09:19Yeah
09:21Yeah
09:22Yeah
09:25Yeah
09:26Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
09:58Okay, move your pretty bum.
10:01Yeah, jolly.
10:02Yeah, jolly.
10:04Yeah.
10:10Okay.
10:12Yeah, yeah, well done.
10:19Right.
10:20But the plan is to now offload the two girls, keep Charlie behind, treat the tail.
10:30Bob's your uncle.
10:32Easy as pie.
10:35Yeah, I'm not sure it's easy as pie, but as I said, a lot simpler than if we had a
10:43lion
10:43that was hissing and spitting at us.
10:56He might get out, I'll have to load him back in again.
10:59Okay.
11:00There is a gap here, George, so you can stay inside.
11:05Okay.
11:16Here.
11:18Here.
11:23Here.
11:35Here.
11:38Okay, here, Charlie.
11:47Good boy.
11:51Good boy, Charlie.
11:52Okay, George, you can go forward.
12:04Okay.
12:05Charlie.
12:06Here.
12:07Charlie.
12:12All right, that's exactly there is good.
12:15Okay, Charlie, Charlie.
12:24Yeah, such a good boy.
12:29He's also got a lesion on his leg.
12:32Oh yes, I see it. You see it? Yeah
12:46What a good boy. Eh? Excellent. Okay so Charlie we know we just do that
13:01Put a little bit more
13:05So proud of you Charlie. You're even better than Vajetzi. Don't let Vajetzi hear me say that.
13:19Okay so that's the hibitane done
13:31Now the shampoo
13:34Myconazole and chlorhexidine
13:38I want to just try and get his tail through here
13:41That would be amazing if I can do that. Okay, maybe move him a bit that way because his tail
13:46is quite cramped
13:48Okay, let him sit down again
13:52Okay
13:57Okay, okay
14:07He's looking at me. What are you doing?
14:11There we go. That's what I wanted
14:34There we go. That's what I wanted to do.
14:56Yeah, Charlie. All right done with that
15:01And the last thing is just need this to dry a bit. Okay
15:06So you mustn't put the cream on when this is wet
15:08Yes, yes it has to dry a bit. Yes, it has to dry a bit.
15:12Did I get all of it there? Can you see? Yes
15:16That's all of it, eh? Yes. Okay
15:19Charlie, Charlie
15:21Okay, that's fine
15:24And then I know definitely one of the questions that's going to come up is
15:29Uh, if I'm handling this fungus
15:33Without gloves or anything like that then why aren't I going to get it and the reason being is obviously
15:38I've got the anti-fungal shampoo and the ointment
15:45Okay, boy
15:47on my hand
15:49So it's all good
15:51Hello, boy
16:00Okay, okay get him in position
16:08There's fine
16:13Okay, there's even better
16:19Okay, I just want to get there it is there. Let me just do that
16:36Okay, can't see anywhere else
16:40Done. Well done. Well done, Charles. Awesome. Well done, George
16:46and I think
16:47uh, Brenton and you are going to do just fine. I'm super confident
17:09Yeah
17:11Okay
17:36Bye bye you guys
17:38Bye Charles
17:40See you big boy
17:43Yeah
17:52I hope you enjoyed that one
17:53Certainly a different kind of Lion Whisperer TV video
17:57How we treat the lions, how we treat the the ringworm outbreak
18:01Well, hardly call it an outbreak because it's just two cats at this point in time
18:05And that's where we hope to keep it. Oh, you're looking so good my boy. Look at you. Vietzi had
18:11a bit of a bout of
18:12Um, um, what we call ringworm
18:16And, uh, the guys have done such an amazing job
18:20At, uh, treating
18:22It and
18:24Yeah, now the hair is growing back. Oh, he's a happy cat
18:28The hair is growing back and he wants a tummy rub
18:31But I must just say
18:33Vietzi was an absolute star
18:37Uh, uh, he really was guys he he um
18:42Loaded into the the vehicle and allowed the guys
18:46Without
18:47Me being there
18:50He allowed the guys to
18:53One feed him at the one end and the other one take his tail through the
18:58Gap
18:59Um in the loading vehicle and wash his entire tail
19:03With, um, uh, this you know special
19:09Antibacterial antifungal
19:10Soap and then put this f10 cream on
19:13And they did that for a solid
19:17Three weeks every day and
19:20Yeah, that is the result his tail is healed healing the hair is growing back
19:25Once the hair starts growing back, you know that that's the end of it
19:29And, um, so we can you treat like once a week now and he will be fine
19:33But he's already he's a happy happy happy cat today. Look at this guy
